How is this email passing DMARC?

Today we received a spoofed email: it was sent to us "from us". (Assume we own foo.com -- real domain redacted.) This is disturbing, as it shows as "from foo.com", yet the sender is definitely not from "foo.com". The mailbox "hello@foo.com" is a…

Forwarding to Gmail doesn't work for emails from Microsoft.com due to DMARC, but works for PayPal.com

I've noticed that I'm not getting certain emails in my Gmail and Yandex.Mail that are forwarded via UNIX systems (without SRS — not too sure if Sender Rewriting Scheme is still the best practice? Because with DMARC I think it'll also have to apply…

Why am I only receiving DMARC aggregate reports from Google?

I have configured SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for a couple of domains that use G Suite as an email/office suite provider. Everything is looking great so far, except for some reason Google is the only provider that is sending us daily aggregate reports, and…

I understand how SPF is involved with DMARC alignment, but one thing I can't get clear: is the SPF policy (-all or ~all) used in DMARC? Or does DMARC merely use the IP ranges? The issue is, that as we all know, SPF breaks forwarding. DKIM is a lot…

Why is OpenDMARC using my (the recipients) configuration for incoming mail?

Recently I've had some incoming emails be rejected by my mail server for failing DMARC checks. Upon closer inspection I noticed that the logs mentioned that the rejection was because OpenDMARC was applying my policy instead of the sender's policy.…
